that gallup poll has obama leading by three points, but over the last few days the number has shrunk. he has still got a lead but it is a lead that is contracting, not expanding. that is the dynamic that is at work right now nationally in the gallup poll. i said there was a dynamic and two numbers. the first number is about money. we reported a couple of weeks ago that mitt romney and the republicans had raised more money in the month of may than romney did and they did that again in june and july. the democrats outraised mitt romney in august which was an unexpected development and one that made obama supporters feel good. but nbc news today looked at the data of what money is being spent and by whom, and it turns out that actually most of the monday that is being spent trying to elect mitt romney president is not being spent by mitt romney's campaign or by the republicans. most of the money that's being spent to elect mitt romney is being spent by outside groups. most of what's being spent is outside money and most outside money overall is pro romney. here's the number. look. 75%. o
